"Go ahead and open it," Jared encouraged gently.

Nicole bit her lip slightly. "Maybe you should handle this one.

She already had the Fire Crest, and while another wouldn't be too much, she somehow felt

the Water Crest might be safer with Jared.

Jared looked at her tenderly. "It doesn't really matter who does it," he reassured her.

Then, with a click on the 'enter' key and a pat on Nicole's shoulder, he said, "After all, I'm

all yours."

"Hey..." Nicole watched him walk away, a mix of humor and slight annoyance in her heart.

'He always leaves just like that, ' she mused.

"I'm off to shower," Jared shouted over his shoulder, disappearing into the bathroom.

Nicole let out a small sigh, her face growing serious as she focused on the task in front of

her.

By the time Jared was done showering, she had managed to get it done.

"It's open," she informed him as he walked back into the room.

Jared, with a gentle smile, asked softly, "Did you claim it yet?

"Not yet," Nicole admitted, uncertainty in her voice.

Jared came closer and gently stroked her hair. "Worried it might not choose you?"

"I guess I'll just give it a shot," Nicole replied, her feelings a bit tangled. It wasn't fear,

Nicole shook her head. "Nothing, just some old memories."

Jared, understanding her, said, "You're thinking about what happened when you claimed

the Fire Crest."

"Yeah, that was quite the ordeal," Nicole replied, a small, thoughtful smile on her lips.

"Let's sleep," Jared suggested, gently pulling Nicole down beside him. He wrapped his

arms around her softly.

Nicole snuggled closer, feeling cozy and quickly drifted off to sleep.

Jared watched her sleeping, his gaze deep and thoughtful. Even though everything

Crest had already stirred up the influential families. She'd have more support now, but

Jared knew those who coveted the Water Crest wouldn't back down easily.

He softly kissed her forehead, his eyes dark with resolve. TH protect her, no matter what.

She won't be hurt,' he silently vowed.

The next day was bright and sunny.

After waking up, everyone headed to the dining room for breakfast.

"Sir, your father's on the phone," the butler announced.

"So early?" Daniel looked puzzled but answered, "Dad?"

"Nicole is the master of the Water Crest now?" Benjamin's voice came through, direct and

to the point.

Daniel, caught off guard, stammered, "The Water Crest?"

He glanced at Nicole, his mind racing. 'What's going on?

What's this about another crest?' He heard the words but couldn't make sense of them.
